So my mom got free passes to see Poseidon at work the other day and so we went last night. First of all we had to sit in the second row at Regal which is way too close to the screen, especially for a movie like this where stuff is happening all over the screen. Secondly, a box of skittles that cost me $2 ( and is normally $3.75) had the amount of skittles of like a 50 cent bag. It was really insane.



Anywho the movie was very enjoyalbe. I never saw the original but this one was very entertaining I thought. Like cheesy and stuff but still really good and entertaining for the time it was on. OMG one scene with Richard Dryfuss and some other actor was crazy intense. I hope I am never in that situation. Well I kinda hope I am not in any of those situations.

Water that is on fire is scary. Fire is scary, drowning is scary, drowning in water that is on fire and burning you...too scary to imagine.

So anyway, that leads me to, I always had wanted to go on a cruise and evyerone I know who has went on one has loved them, and Diana was planning a "we have all been friends for 10 years cruise next year" but this movie terrifies me of it. Seriuosly you are out in the middle of nowhere if something happens. Yet all the food and drinks you can consume...that sounds mighty tasty....maybe it is worth the fire/drowning/sharks etc. ....

So this weekend was fun except Friday night Confetti was supposed to come out. It looks like an amazing movie, like comedy about these couples who enter a magazine contest to pay for their wedding. I don't know, it looks hilaroius and (e:jill) thought she saw that it comes out May 5. So I get so excited, May 5 comes along, it isn't listed in artvoice, it isn't listed in the Gusto, but it must be up.... we start to panic. I go online and serach within 65 miles of my zip code deciding that is how far I am willing to travel to see it. But noooo it isn't....i begin to cry.....how sad.....it isn't up yet i guess...so we saw American Haunting instead which was funny....too bad that it was supposed to be scary. IT was pretty bad but it will give us years worth of jokes I can't meniton here...

So I haven't posted in a little while. Frankly, life has been pretty good lately and I guess when things are really good I don't think of writing as much. So here are some observations from the last few days.

- a 13 hour workday with no break is no fun. Seriously I didn't get a chance to sit down for the entire THIRTEEN hours because it was so busy, including spending a half hour with this dumb stupid lady who didn't know how much was left on her flex card and got rid of one item at a time until her credit card would go through (it turned out she had about 23 dollars on it when her first total was $300. It takes a while to go from 300 to 23 dollars one item at a time while trying the card after gettig rid of each item)

-last night me and (e:libertad) went to Essex St. Pub and they were having their first ever karaoke night. It just doesn't seem like a place that would have karaoke night to me. Needless to say noone but the bartender did karaoke but we left very early so maybe it picked up after that.

-for those of you over 65 you only have 12 more days to sign up for Medicare Part D and avoid any penalty. You won't be able to sign up again til november if you miss the deadline. I'm a little excited because that means at least 5 months of not needing to deal with Medicare.

-This weekend is the weekend of a million things, Confetti( the movie me and (e:jill) have been dying to see) opens, Jen and her b/f who is on leave from Iraq are in town, it is Michelle at works going away party, cinco de mayo, and now I see it is (e:jenks) bday too. I believe some other stuff is this weekend too. Why does eveyrthing always happne this way, all at once!


-note to self: post next journal about former school mates attitude of "the city" and how scary buffalo is

So having Friday's off is totally worth working twelve hour days. I love it. Here was my to do list for today, although I didn't finish all of it, the day was quite succesful. I just feel like I get so muchh done on Fridays.

And to top it all off I got to do something even more exciting than anything on my list..... WEAR SHORT SHORTS AND DO GYMNASTICS with (e:Jill) in BIDWELL PARK AT MIDNIGHT...DONE AND DONE
